KCON is dedicated to promoting and exploring all aspects of Korean culture. Their tagline is "All Things Hallyu," and that became evident the moment we stepped on the grounds. From delicious food (we counted at least four "Eat Your Kimchi" shirts) to futuristic Seoul street fashion, the vendors at the convention were dedicated to educating and entertaining.
